Fine Gardening article by Billy Goodnick “When Bad Taste Meets Power Tools”

You don’t have to look far to see horror stories in your own neighborhood. The aesthetics of garden design are more open for personal touch and interpretation than the design of our home interior and exterior. Often our homes in our communities are built to comparable size, setback and style and the landscape is left for personalization buy the owner or tenant.

 

If you study neighborhoods and landscapes you can see how first impressions of landscapes can turn your eyes away and influence the real value of properties. A study indicated here in this post; 

Increase the Value of Your Home and Enjoy Doing It 

gives you a true sense of the facts and figures on improvements you need to make.

The photos are a mix of good and bad, right? Or I have bad taste, which may well be true, but that's pretty subjective.
  If a plant, or parts of it, is dying because it's being hacked at, I say "BAD." But a lot of these look pretty healthy, if unnatural. Still, I sometimes like the manicured shapes of hedges and topiary. It's not what I have, but I'm about 100 percent sure not everyone would like what I have, either. (Eeek, especially now.)
